Wow - while that Jeep looks great, those tires are almost comically large... I know it's a trick of perspective, and that most any tire will look bigger when totally stuffed like that, but DAMN - that look like a giant rubber innertube for river cruising or something!

x2. I wheeled mine HARD this weekend, and the 37's were great with the 4" of lift I have (3" suspension, 1" body.) No rubbing at all in the front, and barely a rub on the back bumper, but it's not enough to be concerned about. The back bumper rub is about like wiping a towel across it lightly, and that's only at full stuff.
